It has been a year of significant investment for leading security and fire protection solutions supplier, ESP. New products, additional support services and new team members within sales, technical and customer service departments, have all been introduced as the company experiences continued growth.
The latest product category to come under development is CCTV, with a revamp of the RekorHD 2MP CCTV range. Available in kit form, Rekor HD provides all the elements required to get a system up and running in one box - making it popular with installers because of the convenience, whilst offering wholesalers the advantage of ease of ordering and stocking. The only additional item required is a monitor to access the menu and system display.
The systems have been designed with ease of set up as a key feature, including the option for remote monitoring via smartphone or tablet, using ESP’s specially developed ESP View APP.
The revamped range introduces new and improved cameras, which feature contemporary styling and robust metal housings. The infrared capture has been increased from 20 to 30 meters and the range now includes intelligent function, with perimeter intrusion detection and line crossing detection offering improved functionality compared with the traditional motion detection feature.
The new Rekor HD kits include a stylish 4-channel DVR, pre-installed premium surveillance hard drive, cameras, camera cables, system power supply, mouse and HDMI cable. The menu is designed to be very user-friendly and is navigated via mouse control.
There are a number of kit options available, including 2 or 4 camera kits, with the cameras offered in either a bullet or dome style and available in a white or grey finish. This brings a total of 8 different Rekor HD CCTV Kits available. The cameras can be purchased separately to extend the system if required.
Features and benefits include:
Before and after service support for the system is available through ESP’s highly experienced UK technical support team.
ESP believes that its revamped RekorHD range will satisfy the growing demand from customers and contractors for a wide range of CCTV applications.
